[DARKFIRE007]

ok i have HAD it.......i have not got a single friend yet!! i have tried with people only to not be able to send a message.......so im gonna clear this up HERE AND NOW.

we all know both people have to register the friend code.........its the nickname that confuses me. it asks for a nickname after entering the friend code. is this a nick we can choose? or does it have to match their wii console nickname???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

im dying to send and recieve messages/miis.........my friend code is 2605-8397-8634-8176

my console nickname is revolution or if you can CHOOSE my nick, i prefer DARKFIRE

When registering a Wii you don't have to include the other persons nickname. Basically you can make it whatever you want.

Also if your looking for friends try the Friends Code thread.

Edit...

Heres a link to the thread..
